[infinispan-dev] Issue with cache blocks for local read-only cache

["Ståle W. Pedersen"]

hi galder and manik, sorry for sending this mail to so many, but we've 
ran into a issue that prevents us from further scaling of the 
specjenterprise2010 benchmark.

so when doing specjenterprise2010 benchmark testing we've seen a lot of 
blocks caused by the entity/query cache. we've been testing with only 
caching a simple entity bean that's read-only and queries related to 
this entity (selects).

here is a screenshot of the hotspot found:

here is the standalone.xml: 
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/30971563/standalone-full.xml

here is the orm.xml: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/30971563/order_orm.xml

what we don't understand is why there are so many puts into the cache 
for an object that is marked as read-only. when we're testing without 
caching we do not see any blocks.

any help/ideas would be great. if anyone want a jprofiler snapshot of 
the run, let me know.

regards, ståle
